This free and interactive website facilitates in-depth Bible study through a number of tools and features. It is attractive, informative and user-friendly. Fourteen different bible translations are supported.

There are introductions to and summaries of the books of the Bible, commentaries from over 20 sources (including audio and video), a number of maps and images, and a list of scriptures that commonly cause confusion with their intended meanings. There is a choice of three devotionals, a Daily Bible Reading Program (with links to study aids), and the opportunity to listen to passages in your preferred translation of the Bible.

The search tool allows searches by word and phrase, Strong's concordance number, and for original Hebrew or Greek roots of English words.

It's worth noting that some the explanations come from differing theological perspectives, and there are undoubtedly things some would disagree with - such as the timeline describing the events of Revelation. However, this does not devalue the excellent search and referencing tools on the site.

The website is easy to use and navigate, and has the Help Tutorial guides to enable you to gain more from it. Perhaps you are used to your hard-copy Bible but why not give the website a try? You may be surprised at how much it will enhance your Bible study.
